It started out as a 2003 Airborne Valkyrie Ti (I think a 56) with a combination of Ultegra & XT with a Triple upfront and a custom 8 speed 13-30 cassette out back.
(pictured with mods from 2012 including the stem and bar, plus 2012 Ultegra SPDs)

in 2014 I upgraded it to full Ultegra 6800, a Wound Up Front Fork with disc, Chris King Headset & Chris King/Mavic wheels.

Like the prior poster I also have minimal overlap when the wheel is at extreme turn and cranks are in just the right position. Nothing I have to worry about during normal riding.

Sure I'd like to do a rear disc and internal cable routing, but not so much that I'm willing to pay $1000-$2000 for the mods.
